5.7l hemi oil.....

[carguy84]

I use Mobil 1 0w40 in my 5.7L Hemi

I think the hemi is easy on oil-- 7 qt. sump and an engine that lopes along at 1500-2000 RPMs most of the time. I believe most any oil will perform well in the 5.7 hemi--I currently use Valvoline RP 5w-20.

Mobil 1- 5 quarts of 5W-20 and 2 quarts of 5W-30. Thinking of trying Mobil 1 0W-30

Which is NOT recommended in the manual for that vehicle.

Doesn't matter what oil you use. The vehicle will be in the crusher long before the engine dies.

Since I'm the one that paid for it, I'll run what I choose.

How's it run on the r&p ? Notice a difference?

If it's on the internet or in the manual it must be true .....lolol

Just don't tell anyone it's well maintained. Doctor says use Vaseline and you use Wesson Corn Oil. Love this forum. Better than Comedy Central.

0-40 and sleep well at night. unless it goes well below -20f no worries.

0 W oils are good for close to -40*F

My go to for the last few years has been Valvoline EP in my Hemi. Before was Pennzoil Platinum and is still one of my favorites.

Good Plan for the Cheesehead State.

And what the heck do you think is the reason that choice would be bad? Lol. Your comparison is not even close to the same thing.

No differences that I can tell. This engine has always run smooth and get's 5000 mile OCIs, so I expect the innards to be fairly clean. It also has never used any oil between oil changes. . . I don't expect that to change. The real test on the VRP will be in the wife's GDI Hyundai Santa Fe. I have some oil in my stash to use before that happens. . . probably next year sometime.
